The Organic

Once Again Dram and Land United

Islayʼs only organic whisky has now been released as a full scale world-wide bottling.

The Organic follows the inaugural, limited-edition bottling released last year by Bruichladdich. Organically grown Chalice barley was again used, this time from three Scottish farms – Mid Coul, Coulmore and Mains of Tullibardine.

Based on the 2003 vintage, matured in American oak casks (both used and new wood), it was created by head distiller Jim McEwan as a multi-vintage bottling – each of the three origins harvested, malted, distilled and matured separately – for ultimate complexity.

The strength was reduced to 46% with Islay spring water, bottled non chill-filtered, caramel-free and certified organic by the Biodynamic Agricultural Association. Distillery MD Mark Reynier said “This is extra-ordinary stuff. Though young it has a highly individual character: itʼs intriguingly layered with astonishing definition, an intoxicating intensity, extraordinary purity, and a finish that is simply to die for. Itʼs one of a kind.”

Only three distilleries market an organic single malt. Of those Bruichladdich commissions the largest volume of organic barley of any Scotch whisky distillery; depending on harvest, almost half of Bruichladdichʼs annual requirement is organically grown on Scottish farms.

The Organic now forms one of the central planks of the definitive Bruichladdich range. It retails at £34. Uk distribution: Blavod. Exports: andrew@bruichladdich.com

A REVOLUTIONARY OLD IDEA:

IN VICTORIAN TIMES WHEN BRUICHLADDICH DISTILLERY WAS BUILT, ALL SCOTTISH BARLEY WAS ORGANICALLY GROWN, AND THE RELATIONSHIP OF FARMER WITH HIS SOIL AND THE SEASONS, AND DISTILLER WITH FARMER WERE INTIMATE AND ENDURING. THESE NATURAL RHYTHMS AND TIES WERE LOST AS INDUSTRIALISED FARMING CUT THE ANCIENT SYNERGY OF MAN, SOIL, CROP, LIFE. AN AGE OF SUPER- EFFICIENT BLANDNESS WAS BORN; THE COST – A LOSS OF SOUL, IDENTITY AND DEFINITION.

WITH THIS WHISKY, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OUR ORGANIC FARMERS, SIR WILLIAM ROBERTS OF MAINS OF TULLIBARDINE, WILLIAM ROSE AT MID COUL AND NEIL SCOBIE AT COULMORE, WE ARE RECONNECTING, REDISCOVERING THAT SOUL. ONCE AGAIN LAND AND DRAM UNITED.

SUPREME QUALITY BARLEY COMBINED WITH A SLOW TRICKLE-DISTILLATION TO DO IT JUSTICE, AND SOME NEW OAK HAS RESULTED IN THE CREAMIEST SPIRIT WE’VE EVER SEEN. THIS IS HOW IT USED TO BE IN A MORE INNOCENT AGE BEFORE THE COMMERCIAL PRESSURES OF COMPUTERISED DISTILLING AND INDUSTRIAL CONFORMITY.

REFLECTING THIS, THE TIN’S IMAGE IS OF BRIGHDE, PRONOUNCED “BRIG-HEED-HER”, THE GAELIC GODDESS OF FERTILITY, HARVEST AND HOME. SHE IS A POWERFUL SPIRIT OF THE LAND AND “MOTHER OF THE ISLES”, SHE IS THE VERY LIFE-FORCE OF THE HEBRIDEAN ISLANDS THEMSELVES.

DISTILLERY NOTES:

THE ONLY ORGANIC ISLAY SINGLE MALT. 100% ORGANIC CERTIFIED BY THE BIODYNAMIC ASSOCIATION. 100% SCOTTISH-GROWN ORGANIC BARLEY. SINGLE VARIETY BARLEY: CHALICE. THE FIRST MAINSTREAM ISLAY ORGANIC BOTTLING. BRUICHLADDICH’S “CREAMIEST SPIRIT EVER”. MULTIVINTAGE BASED ON 2003 HARVEST. 7 SCOTTISH TERROIRS FOR ULTIMATE COMPLEXITY, PROVENANCE AND TRACEABILITY. TIN DESIGN FEATURING BRIGHDE, GAELIC GODDESS OF FERTILITY AND HARVEST. MATURED IN AMERICAN OAK CASKS – NEW AND USED. TRICKLE-DISTILLED, MATURED AND BOTTLED ON ISLAY AT 46% ABV. NATURAL WHISKY: NON CHILL-FILTERED, COLOURING-FREE, BOTTLED WITH ISLAY SPRING WATER.

BALLANTINE’S REVEALS EXCLUSIVE PREMIUM BLEND FOR FESTIVE SEASON
 
Ballantine’s, the world’s No 2 range of blended Scotch whiskies, has added its first seasonal limited edition expression to the range, with the unveiling of Ballantine’s Christmas Reserve.  Aimed at attracting new and existing customers during the festive season, Ballantine’s Christmas Reserve will help to strengthen the brand’s position in key European markets.
 
Created by Master Blender Sandy Hyslop, Ballantine’s Christmas Reserve is an exceptional blended whisky of superior quality which will be available annually for a limited period. The non-aged expression is a Scotch whisky category first, with its familiar seasonal notes and luxury Christmas aromas such as sweet wood, dried fruit, raisins and cinnamon.
 
Peter Moore, International Brand Director for Ballantine’s comments: “Predictably there’s always a strong focus on gifting at this time of the year so it was important for us to respond with a unique expression which would appeal to new customers as well as existing customers who are keen to trade up. Although a first for Ballantine’s, the Christmas Reserve perfectly represents the flair and substance that underpins the brand”.
 
Available from October to December 2010 in key markets such as Spain, France, Poland and Taiwan, Ballantine’s Christmas Reserve is presented in a white card box, with embossed snowflakes and elements of gold foil adding a premium festive feel.  Moving away from the traditional blue packaging that is synonymous with the brand, the striking new expression will ensure maximum shelf stand out for Ballantine’s during the busy sales period.
 
Tasting Notes

On the nose, Ballantine’s Christmas Reserve is rich, deep and fruity with hints of moist raisin fruitcake and sweet candy apples perfectly balanced out by caramel toffees and soft ripe pears. It tastes sweet with succulent tangy orange and a superb liquorice root and ginger flavour. The finish is very long, round and sweet.

Well summer’s nearly over and there’s a definite chill in the air here on Jura. A wee nip of Diurachs’ Own inside you is just what you need when there’s a wee nip in the air outside. That said though we’re not quite ready yet to batten down the hatches for winter. There’s still plenty happening here on Jura!

The island has just about recovered from the 17th Jura Music Festival. Taking to the stage this year were a host of up and coming and established artists who delighted Diurachs and our friends who popped over from Islay with stirring tunes and moving songs. It was an unforgettable weekend of toe-tapping and foot-stomping with a wee dram or two as well of course! Not much was done on Sunday morning, I can tell you. To see highlights from the weekend and get a glimpse of life on Jura during one of the island’s busiest weekends of the year click here . You might even spot me and some of the distillery boys on the dance floor but remember, what happens on Jura, stays on Jura!

As it was such a big weekend for the Island I thought there would be no better time to reflect on our last festival, the Whisky Festival, and update you on our very special limited edition Boutique Barrel bottling. Cask 30 was chosen earlier this year by the 180 of you who joined us at the Feis Ile and we’re releasing it very soon exclusively on the island. To let you into our thoughts, the boys and I had a wee tasting of the spirit in Warehouse No.1 exclusively for you, so to whet your appetite click here http://tinyurl.com/2u74ttc to see what we had to say!

As an honorary Diurach, you’re in with a chance of winning one of these exclusive bottles (only 493 bottles are being produced) so be sure to watch the video clip closely and answer the question on our website to enter.

While you’re online you should take a look at our “Island Events” page http://www.isleofjura.com/island-life/Jura-events.aspx . 2010 has been a busy year so far and we’ve captured the best of all that’s gone on for your enjoyment, such as our recent Viking visit! Fifty hardy souls braved gales, rain and mist to land their longship and claim our contribution to the legendary Pillage Malt. This age-old tradition was the brainchild of distillery workers years ago who decided to select the finest whiskies from the isles of Jura, Islay and Mull and create a unique expression. This prized whisky – plundered liquid gold – is expected to raise about £23,000 for charitable causes on the three islands. So well done to all involved and drinks all round!

You might already have taken part so I’m sure you’ll be pleased to hear that our weekly online pub quiz is going down a storm with Diurachs the world over. If you haven’t given it a go yet, then click here to play http://tinyurl.com/diurach . There’s a bottle of our limited edition Isle of Jura 1974 worth £485 up for grabs, so it’s well worth a try.

Lastly, while I probably shouldn’t be telling you this yet, we’re all very excited about the commemorative bottling to be released soon in celebration of our 200th anniversary. I can’t say too much yet but it’s definitely one to look out for and I can’t wait to share news of it with you all!

Until then.

Jura Distillery Manager

Glenfiddich Pioneers Tasting Experience with Porter Airlines
Pre-Flight Experience Even More Refined

TORONTO – September 29, 2010 –Today, Glenfiddich, the world’s most awarded single malt, has renewed its partnership with Porter Airlines creating a unique pre-flight experience. Porter customers departing from Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport can participate in a guided tasting of the Glenfiddich 12 Year Old, 15 Year Old and 18 Year Old single malts.

The pilot project launched earlier this year saw more than 1,100 Porter passengers participate in a tutored tasting of single malt Scotch.

Experienced malt specialists will lead travellers through the nuances and subtleties of tasting and understanding the often perplexing world of single malts. 

“Like William Grant & Sons, Porter is an entrepreneurial, customer-focused business,” said Lindsay Prociw, Senior Brand Manager for Glenfiddich. “Both companies take pride in the quality of their products, working hard to ensure an uncompromised consumer experience, and both are innovators within their respective industries, always striving above all else to maintain the quality they have become known to uphold.”

“The initial trial earlier this year was extremely popular with passengers,” said Robert Deluce, president and CEO of Porter Airlines. “The tasting experience provides added value to our travellers, which we try to offer throughout the entire trip.”

The special whisky tastings will be offered to Porter flyers in the newly-opened Canadian departures lounge between the hours of 4:00 and 8:00 PM on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, until November 5, 2010.

Come join us on Tuesday October 26th at 6:30 PM at La Boheme ( http://labohemerestaurant.com/ )in Burlingame as we sit down with some small plate appetizers and taste through a selection of American whiskies.  The small craft distillation boom has been a controversial subject as of late, with bloggers all over the internet sounding off on whether they believe anything good is actually coming from it.  Are these small and unknown distilleries a local industry that we as Americans should be nurturing, or should they leave it to the established producers?  Are they too weird, too different, and too esoteric, or are they a sign of a new way forward?  Available to taste will be:

– Stranahan’s Whiskey from Colorado
– Prichard’s Double Barreled Bourbon from Tennessee
– Prichard’s  Tennessee Whisky
– Prichard’s Single Malt
– Roughstock Montana Whisky
– Copper Fox Rye Whisky from Virginia
– Copper Fox – Wasmund’s Single Malt Whisky

Come sound off as we discuss the movement and I talks about each producer and their specific operations.  Tickets are available here.  Price includes all tastings and food.
